AAJA mayoral candidates forum coming up!

Save the date! On Monday, May 5, from 6:30-7:30 p.m., AAJA-Portland will sponsor a “candidates’ conversation” with the leading candidates for Portland mayor: Commissioner Sam Adams and Azumano Travel owner Sho Dozono. The format will be Q-and-A with light refreshments. This is a great opportunity to get the candidates’ views on diversity issues, so come and bring your friends.

Admission is free but seats are limited, so tickets are required. To get tickets, e-mail aajaportland@gmail.com with the number of tickets you need and where to send them.

The forum will be at the Multnomah Arts Center, 7688 SW Capitol Highway.
